Ingredients

olive or canola oil spray 

1 leek (white part only), cut lengthways and finely sliced 

600g pumpkin, peeled and cut into 1cm cubes 

6 eggs, lightly beaten 

3/4 cup low-fat milk 

95g reduced-fat feta cheese 

1/3 cup basil leaves, chopped 

small green salad, to serve 

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan forced). 
  2. Spray a 12-hole, ½-cup capacity muffin pan with oil. Spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and place on medium heat. 
  3. Add leek to frying pan and cook for three minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. 
  4. Add pumpkin, spray with oil and stir to coat vegetables. Add ½ cup water, cover pan and steam for 10 minutes until just tender. 
  5. In a medium sized jug, whisk together eggs and milk; season with black pepper. 
  6. Remove pumpkin mixture from heat and stir through feta and basil. 
  7. Place muffin pan on a flat baking tray then spoon pumpkin mixture evenly into 12 holes. Carefully pour over egg mixture to almost fill muffin holes. Bake for 25 minutes, or until firm and golden. 
  8. Cool in the pan for five minutes before turning on a wire rack. 
  9. Serve warm or cold with a green salad.
